Fashionable Storage
Boxes and file folders intended for storage can be just as fashion savvy as the rest of the decorated room. Use beautiful wallpaper or a favorite decorator fabric to transform plain cardboard boxes and utilitarian file folders into decorator accent pieces. And the rest of the roll offers plenty of extra paper for coordinating shelf liners and decorative boxes. Regularly used boxes and files can be left on display and within arms reach when covered to coordinate with the room.
Tips & Creative Alternatives:
- Cardboard boxes and accordion file folders can be found in any office
supply store or stationery catalogue. Many have on-line sources.
- Use lidded boxes of the light weight gift - style or heavier corrugated
style cardboard.
- Accordion files are available with an open top as pictured or apply
the same principles to cover the closed top style in which the back
cover is longer and flaps to the front, then closes.
- Before you shop for fabric or wallpaper, measure your box or file folder and draw the pattern pieces (Steps 1 - 4) to determine the amount of fabric and fusible web needed.
